Back then when I had watched it, I had thought she was little more than an extra, I'd have never thought she was a real astronaut! (Plus she looked very young! she must have been 37 at the time, but looked at least 10 younger- well that's how I remember her anyway)

Wow! How cool would that have been..... an astronaut on Startrek! I bet she was soooooooo excited!

Better than going into space.

Did you know that when Nasa sent out the call for a name for the space shuttle it was the Star Trek fans who banded together to get it called the Enterprise.

As you know, I watch films dubbed in Italian, in cinemas and tv (to watch the original version I need the DVDs).So, there is one name in common between the Harry Potter movies and the Lord Of the Rings that will not figure in the next Hobbit film. Who is he and why.

Out of curiosity and something that I noticed on trips to Europe - it seems to me that most 'foreign' films when shown in Italy and Germany are dubbed into Italian, whereas in the Netherlands that keep them in the original language and use subtitles (or as happened when I saw Harry Potter in a cinema in the Netherlands, you get a choice of dubbed or subtitles).

Is it the case that Italians prefer dubbed to subtitles? I know that just about any Italian films shown in Britain are in Italian with English subtitles. I don't think we are as fond of dubbing over here.

yep, that's it. And I know how you feel about dubbing, and to you he would have sound strange and alienating, but to italian ears he was really perfect for the role. Can't imagine going to the cinema to see the Hobbit without him, maybe I'll wait for the DVD.

Ok, that proved my abilities to make questions, so I'll leave it to you for the next
